The Snowman (1982)

Continuity mistake: In the scene just before the snowman comes to life, the clock in the hallway reads midnight. But a little later, when he is showing the snowman around the house and he is about to lead him upstairs, the clock reads 8:05.

Older James: I remember that winter because it had brought the heaviest snows I had ever seen. Snow had fallen steadily all night long and in the morning I woke in a room filled with light and silence, the world seemed to be held in a dream-like stillness. It was a magical day. And it was on that day I made the snowman.

Trivia: In the original book, the boy who's friends with the snowman isn't given a name. In the film he's given a gift by Father Christmas with a nametag on it, so the filmmakers opted for James, the husband of one of the animators.
